Posting from a throwaway account: most of the risks of marijuana are: bad short-term memory, if you're a new smoker you might be paranoid, if you're smoking (as opposed to vaporizing) you're taking in smoke (bad for your lungs). It's also potentially psychologically addicting (like being addicted to shopping, chocolate, as opposed to physically addicting like meth or something).
If health is a concern, invest in a vaporizer instead of combusting with fire.
I've never personally been negatively affected with weed. It's an excellent mind expander and pairs extremely well with music and video. For some people (like myself), I have clear thoughts going through my head faster than I can write them down. Sometimes I like to lay back and vape and read Hacker News (like now) — it's a nice relaxer. Life just becomes more real.
